Participants with higher hs-cTnI and NT-proBNP levels were significantly older and had significantly higher rates of DM, pre-existing cardiovascular diseases, and myocardial infarction; significantly higher levels of ERI, CRP, eGFR and adiponectin; and significantly lower levels of GNRI (Table 1). Here, TNNI3 is linked to myocardial infarction.
